<u>Answer;</u>

Reflective surface

<u>Explanation;</u>

  • Reflection is one of the property of a wave that occurs when a wave hits a boundary which is a reflective surface. The wave bounces off upon hitting the reflective boundary, such that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.
  • Therefore, ice is an example of a reflective surface as light waves bounces off and radiate back when they hit the surface of the ice.

The special theory of relativity deals with space and time under what special condition?
sergij07 [2.7K]
<h2>Answer: Invariance of the speed of light in vacuum  </h2>

Special relativity was proposed on 1905 by Einstein, who developed his theory based on the following two postulates:  

<em>1. The laws of physics are the same in all inertial systems. There is no preferential system.  </em>

<em>2. The speed of light in vacuum has the same value for all inertial systems.  </em>

<em></em>

Focusing on the first postulate, it can be affirmed that any measurement on a body is made with reference to the system in which it is being measured.

 

In addition, it deals with the <u>dilation of time</u> stating that <u>time passes at different rates in regions of different gravitational potential</u>. That is, the greater the local distortion of space-time due to gravity, the slower the time passes.  

On the other hand, following what relativity establishes, bodies within a gravitational field follow a curved space path.

A 5.5 kg box is pushed across the lunch table. The acceleration of the box is 4.2 m/s2. What was the net force applied to the bo
Bezzdna [24]
Use this numbers that you are given and plug them into the formule for net force

Net force= m*a (mass times acceleration)

Therefore the net force is equal to (5.5 kg)*(4.2 m/s^2)= 23.1 N

Answer: Net force= 23.1 N
